Thanks Guys, The gun is a .54 cal 42" Colerain barrel with round bottom rifling Made by Mr. Tip Curtis.

My load was a .530 self poured patched round ball and 70 grns of Goex fffg. with a pinch wasp nest between the ball and the powder.

The hunt was on Laurel Hill WMA, an area that I haven't hunted in 25 or 30 years.

Somehow the moon and the stars aligned and things worked out for me.

Thanks for all the kind words GuysI , it was a fun hunt!

It must be very satisfying to get one the old fashioned way. Congrats.

Both Satisfying and Rewarding....It's about the only way I hunt these day.

Thanks for the compliments.
